Background


AMCI Mountaineering Club, Inc. (formerly the Ayala Mountaineers Club, Inc.) was founded in 1982. It was incorporated in 1983 as a non-stock, non-profit organization.

AMCI is committed to SAFETY, CAMARADERIE and ENVIRONMENT – the cornerstones of a RESPONSIBLE MOUNTAINEER.

Annually, AMCI conducts its Basic Mountaineering Course training. It is an intensive 4-to-5 months program designed to equip participants with the skills and knowledge needed while in the outdoors; and be the kind of mountaineers and Eco-advocates who are both admired and respected.

AMCI has organized expeditions to Mt. Apo, Mt. Kanlaon, Mt. Guiting-guiting, Mt. Halcon, Mt. Pinatubo, Mt. Pulag and other mountains in the Philippines and even abroad. Furthermore, AMCI has been to Sagada, Batanes, Camiguin and other destinations in the country.

Aside from mountaineering, AMCI members are also into other outdoor sports and hobbies, e.g., SCUBA diving, mountain biking, photography, river rafting, underwater hockey, etc. In addition, AMCI members also participate in multi-discipline sports competitions.

AMCI balances its sports and recreation activities with community- and environment-related projects.

AMCI Hymn

Ginintuang sinag ng araw sa bundok,
Lamig sa umagang may taglay na hamog,
nagbibigay sigla't lakas sa buhay ko,
Sa aking paggising kapiling ko.

Sa isip at puso ko'y kadamay ka,
Sa ginhawa at dusa ay kasama ka,
Nakatatak sa buhay ko'y pangalan mo,
Kabundukan kasa-kasama mo.

(Refrain)

Ulan, kulog, kidlat ay kasama,
Ngiti sa labi ay pag-asa,
Makamtan lang ang minimithi sa dibdib.

Tatak AMCI sa puso ko, tatak AMCI sa isip ko,
Tatak AMCI 'di ka iiwan sa kabundukan -
Kailan pa man.

Lipad-isip, lampas-ulap,
Nakatayo na matatag,
Kagandahan ng kabundukan,
Walang sawang minamasdan.

Repeat Refrain - 1st and 2nd Stanza

Kailan pa man (3x)

Sky Biscocho, Batch 1992
